"I need a large amount of human essence …"
Lan Mu was still in the form of the Nine-Tailed Fox. He was extremely weak and his face was pale.
He took another two liters of his blood and realized that blood was just as important to the Nine-Tailed Fox.
Although he was a demon, he only had six liters of blood in his body. He had taken four liters, which was more than half of his blood. If he were a human, he would have died.
He quickly turned into the True Ancestor of the Vampires. The weakness disappeared instantly, but he knew that the Nine-Tailed Fox's state was only frozen. If he wanted to recover, he needed to absorb human essence.
"After absorbing these two liters of blood, my doppelganger has reached twelve thousand. The effect is really remarkable."
For the time being, Lan Mu's main method of strengthening was to absorb the blood of his other transformations.
The Nine-Tailed Fox was the most cost-effective. Other creatures with blood were not as good as this demon that was once considered weak.
The Nine-Tailed Fox seemed to have such rich nutrients in its blood because of its powerful race and amazing potential. Lan Mu sighed and reflected that it must have powerful abilities that it had not developed.
The instincts of the Vampires were not wrong. Only the stronger and more perfect the blood of the creature, the better it would be for the Vampires.
In fact, the blood of the Divine Bird Bi Fang was also very good, but Lan Mu's first choice was still the Nine-Tailed Fox. After all, he had a way to repair the Nine-Tailed Fox's injury, but not the Bi Fang's.
The Nine-Tailed Fox had been killed once because of its mistakes and weak defense. Fortunately, it had the ability to resurrect and offset the death with a tail.
Lan Mu had a hunch that the ninth tail was the most important tail of the Nine-Tailed Fox. At this moment, he was eager to repair that tail!
"To repair the ninth tail, I need to absorb at least eighty to a hundred human essence. Where can I find so many people …"
"Let's ask Bai Ze …"
Lan Mu walked out of the secret room and scanned with his mind power. He did not find Bai Ze on the island, but there were some Vampires guarding the island.
"He left? He should have gone to America, right? "
Lan Mu pursed his lips. "Actually, animal essence can also replenish the Nine-Tailed Fox's lost HP. It doesn't have to be a human."
"But I feel that only the essence of humans can make the Nine-tailed Fox stronger. The Sun, Moon, and Man are the cultivation paths of demons."
"Replenish your HP first."
With a leap, he turned into a hundred-meter-long flood dragon and dove into the sea, raising huge waves.
The mercenaries guarding the island rushed over when they heard the commotion, but all they saw was a horrifying gully on the beach.
"This is the mark of a snake … Isn't it too big?"
"Is there such a big snake on the island? There isn't one in the whole world! "
The mercenaries looked at each other and decided to guard the shore.
In the depths of the sea, Lan Mu began to hunt, specifically picking large animals to catch.
However, after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find any large animals in the nearby sea.
"Alright … Maybe they were scared away by my actions in the past."
Taking a step back, Lan Mu easily caught over a hundred different kinds of fish. He picked the big ones, and the shortest ones were half a meter long.
He didn't know what kind of fish it was, so he directly caught it in his mouth and threw it ashore.
"Crackle, crackle!"
All kinds of big fish landed on the shore, scaring the mercenaries.
When they saw the huge black shadow with its back to the light, they immediately bared their fangs and spread their bat wings, fully alert.
Lan Mu came ashore in his snake form and saw two mercenaries charging at him from the left and right.
Unexpectedly, the huge flood dragon disappeared in the next second, and a slender figure quickly reached out with both hands and easily clamped down on the two of them.
"True … True Ancestor!"
Seeing the person clearly, the mercenaries were stunned and hurriedly bowed.
Lan Mu didn't lower himself to their level and just waved his hand to let them leave.
He turned back into the Nine-tailed Fox and weakly absorbed the essence of the school of fish. Immediately, his face became rosy and healthy again.
"As expected, I'm only recovering from my injuries. There are so many big and strong fish, but most of their essence has been wasted."
"I still need the essence of the Sun, Moon, and Man to repair my tail and cultivate myself …"
Looking up at the sun, Lan Mu felt the slow progress.
"If I rely on the essence of the Sun and Moon, I'm afraid I won't be able to achieve anything in less than a hundred years. It's said that one can only grow a tail after a hundred years of cultivation. Where do I get so much time?"
"Forcing me to start with humans."
Lan Mu waved his hand and shouted, "You, come here!"
The last mercenary who left was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself.
Lan Mu nodded and called him over, asking, "Can you contact Bai Ze?"
The mercenary nodded, took out a mobile phone and handed it over, "Yes … but the boss said not to contact him unless it's something important."
"If it's something important, then it's something important."
Lan Mu took the phone and directly contacted Bai Ze. After a while, the call was connected.
"What happened on the island? Someone attacked? "Bai Ze thought it was CANC.
Lan Mu said, "Where are you?"
Hearing this voice, Bai Ze understood and asked, "I'm in New York, master, what's the matter?"
"Since CANC has prepared so many D-grade personnel, can't we also prepare a group of D-grade personnel?" Lan Mu asked.
Bai Ze was stunned, "Death row prisoners? This … CANC controls most of the countries in the world, so … cough cough, master, do you want to do some human experiments? "
Lan Mu said, "I need a large amount of human essence, preferably a lot of the kind that no one cares about even if they die."
Bai Ze laughed, "There are many of these kinds of people. CANC uses prisons in various countries to replenish their D-class personnel. We can't use this method, but it's easy to find criminals. For example, there are many drug lords and gangs in South America. Human trafficking organizations in Eastern Europe are also very rampant … "
"Right, master, are you on Shadow Island?"
Lan Mu said, "Yes, why?"
"That's too convenient. Southeast Asia has the most criminals, drug lords, illegal armed forces, and pirates. The closest to Shadow Island is the Indo-China area. Pirates are rampant there. Java, Wangadi, Sulawesi, and other sea areas have a large number of pirates. "
Bai Ze continued, "As far as I know, there are many pirate lairs scattered around the Songsolor Archipelago. I've investigated this very well because our cargo ship has also been hijacked and lost a lot of money."
Lan Mu was shocked, "Is that so? Why haven't I heard of it? "
Bai Ze laughed, "I wouldn't dare to trouble master with such a small matter. Southeast Asia is full of small pirates. Basically, some fishing villages can't survive, so the whole village goes out to sea to rob. There are only a few regular pirates. They have connections with the illegal armed forces in the triangle area. After all, those arms are transported from America. To avoid Interpol, they need the support of pirates."
"In fact, I'm eager to recruit mercenaries and build an armed force because the sea area in Southeast Asia is a bit chaotic. Basically, except for Malacca, which is very safe because of the American military, the other small straits, non-international shipping sea areas, have pirates."
Lan Mu interrupted Bai Ze and said, "Don't say too much. Just tell me the location of their lairs."
"Uh … Okay, they're …" After saying the address, Bai Ze said again, "The mercenaries I left on the island know the specific location. It's faster for you to lead the way. If it's not convenient, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Lan Mu nodded and said, "Alright, I got it."
Seeing that Lan Mu was about to hang up, Bai Ze asked, "Master, the progress in New York is good. Do you want to come and guide the work?"
Lan Mu thought of the unfinished business of taking in a large number of souls and said, "I still have things to do. I'm not free! Why? You can't handle the situation? "
Bai Ze quickly said, "No …"
"Then it's fine. I'm hanging up!"
Lan Mu hung up immediately and threw the phone back to the mercenary before asking.
"Do you know the location of the pirate lairs in the Inkwell Sea?"
The mercenary nodded and said, "I know. Our original mission was to deal with pirates. We collected this information for the boss."
"That's good. Lead the way!"
Thus, the two turned into bats, rushed out of Shadow Island, and flew at high speed on the sea.
The mercenaries were only fourth-generation vampires, and their flying speed was about the same as a passenger plane. However, Inkwell wasn't far from here. A few hours later, they arrived near the Songsolor Archipelago.
…
On a small island in the Songsolor Archipelago. Although it was only a small island of 40 square kilometers, there was a natural harbor on it that was suitable for some small ships to dock.
A dock had been built on it, and a dilapidated ferry that looked like it had been modified was moored in the harbor. There were flags of various countries on it, all piled up in a corner of the deck like garbage. At the same time, there was an extremely ugly flood dragon graffiti on the side of the ship.
There were many buildings made of wood and stone on the shore, and the hygiene was terrible. Most of them were rough men with dark skin, and almost all of them carried guns.
There was a large wooden house with a pile of leftovers and wine barrels inside.
This was a pirate's paradise. The entire island was their territory, and they were completely free.
The sun was setting in the west, and it was time for dinner. A large group of pirates came out from their residences and gathered in the large wooden house for a big meal.
Usually, there would be similar gatherings every week. They were extravagant, and after reaping a large fortune, they would purchase large amounts of supplies and alcohol, enjoying the luxurious accessories and women they had plundered. Once they were short on money and couldn't find a suitable target at sea, they would set their sights on some poor fishing villages along the coast, plundering food and people. The men were coolies, and the women were toys.
They wore all kinds of gold, silver, and jewelry that didn't match them, but they didn't care about their appearance. Their guns were kept with the boss at the main seat, and they weren't allowed to carry guns during the gatherings.
At the beginning of the gathering, after a made-up drinking routine, the pirate boss gave the order, and the pirates began to party freely.
Some pirates hugged the scantily clad women and played with them wantonly. Some pirates could only hold wine barrels, smoke foreign cigarettes, and look at the group of pirates enviously.
Only a few pirates had fixed women, and they were all plundered from fishing villages along the coast. After they were plundered, they had to be shared by all the pirates for a month. At the end of the month, they would be distributed to a pirate.
In fact, most people couldn't wait for the month to end, and were usually tortured to death in ten to twenty days.
Because some pirates knew that they wouldn't be distributed, they unscrupulously vented during the month, almost torturing the other party to death. In any case, they wouldn't be the one to take over in the end.
Therefore, most of the women died in the first ten days, and their bodies were thrown into the sea to feed the sharks.
Even if there were strong women who survived to the end, their bodies were basically crippled, and they were directly killed and abandoned by the pirates who took over.
The pirate boss wanted to change this situation several times, but to cancel the one-month deadline was unacceptable to all the pirates, and in the end, nothing was done.
Most pirates didn't want to start a family. Even if some pirates were in their forties, they still didn't want to start a real family.
Many people were thinking the same thing as what their Boss had told them back then.
"When we save enough money, we'll go to America and have fun, start a family, and start a business."
In fact, only the young pirates still believed in the boss's words. Many of the older pirates had already given up on themselves. They didn't believe that they could wash away their past life in America and start anew, so they lived more wantonly in the present.
They enjoyed themselves, and occasionally looked forward to the future, but most of the time, they were just looking at the refreshment in front of them.
However, they didn't know that while they were having fun and drinking.
At some point, two figures had descended from the sky above the island.
P/s: The first chapter has been changed. It's not that I forgot about the flood dragon. After all, I didn't even forget about Fatty Ding. How could I forget about such a large flood dragon? I just accidentally missed it when I was writing … Well, I forgot about it. Don't worry about these details. In addition, I never ask for votes. Everyone, please remember that reading my book, discussing, criticizing, and suggesting is already supporting me. Of course, supporting the original version is even more important. There's a group number in the introduction, everyone can come. There's already a lot of people. In addition, I'm sorry to those friends who supported me with rewards and monthly votes. I can't bear to look at the efficiency of my writing. In fact, I really want to explode, but I'm not very good at writing, so if I explode, it might be useless. So, I'm sorry. When my life stabilizes and I pay off my debt, I'll inform everyone if I have any saved chapters. That's all.
